The dank musty smell of rotting flesh filled Links nostrils as the door crept open

The dank musty smell of rotting flesh filled Links nostrils as the door crept open. The only light in the build he had entered came from flickering candles spread across the room; the walls were covered with torn tapestries and blood stains. The only form of life appeared to be the rats scurrying across the dirt covered floor leaving small feet marks behind. The entire place looked deserted but Link knew better then to think this, Epona had lead him here for a reason and he hoped it would show him more about what happened to the boy.

Link moved cautiously through the mysterious mansion, expecting that any minute he will be attacked. He drew the Master sword and readied his Hyrulian shield; his eyes shot from corner to corner searching for any sign of evil. The medieval looking rug torn under his heavy walking and Link froze. Minutes passed but Link dared not move. His heart pounded hard against his tense chest while his mind tried to make his body move on. There was only one other door in this room other than the entrance and it was less than five metres away.

A sudden chill hit him like a brick wall; something was watching him, but where. Link slowly rotated scanning every dark corner. Nothing. Where was this force, he could feel it's presence it was mocking him. Of course, mocking him it was the twilight following him. Link had to move fast, he shot towards the door and yanked it open. He ran into the next room and slammed the door. He turned to examine this new room and was shocked. It looked identical to the room he had just left. "Impossible, it can't be what is going on here?" Link was confused how could he of re-entered the room he had just left. He stepped into the centre of the room and felt the twilight again. He had been caught; it was playing with his mind.

Link had to find a way out, he scouted around the perimeter of the room in search of a secret passage but found none. "Think link you missing something here… The rug!" Link realised the rug hadn't been torn like the last one. In fact it looked brand new; he went up to it and rolled it up, underneath was a battered trapdoor. The handle was rusted and looked ready to crumble. Link grabbed it and pulled with his strength, it took a while but slowly it shifted and fell open. Stone stair descended down into near darkness, a lone candle shone at the bottom of the stairs and it game link hope that there was a path. He lowered himself down and climbed down the stairs.

When Link reached the bottom he saw a long tunnel leading forward to another door, a distant door. "Right Link lets go." He strode forward and stopped again. The Twilight was back and stronger, Link broke into a sprint and aimed for the door, he seethed his sword and swung his shield onto his back so he could move more freely.

He was nearing the door…WHACK. He ran straight into a tall, black wall.

"Ouch, where'd that come from?"

An echoing laugh boomed through the dark wall, Link stood and turned to go back only to face another black wall.

"Damn I'm trapped!"

The laugh came again, louder than before. A hand began to form in the wall, it reached out and grabbed Link. It held tight and squeezed, Link yelled in agony. Then a blinding light and nothing.

Link passed out and the hand dropped him, the walls disappeared and Link was alone in a cold and deserted corridor where no one could find him.

A new sensation took over Link, he was no longer in his body. His spirit had flown into his mind and he was about to relive his worst memories.
